GET PublicAccessBlock

Description

This operation retrieves the PublicAccessBlock configuration for an Amazon Web Services
account. In order to use this operation, you must have the
s3:GetAccountPublicAccessBlock permission. For more information about
Amazon S3 permissions, see Specifying
Permissions in a Policy in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Developer Guide.

Important

When Amazon S3 evaluates the PublicAccessBlock configuration for a bucket or an
object, it checks the PublicAccessBlock configuration for both the
bucket (or the bucket that contains the object) and the bucket owner's account.
If
the PublicAccessBlock settings are different between the bucket and the
account, Amazon S3 uses the most restrictive combination of the bucket-level and
account-level settings.

For more information about when Amazon S3 considers a bucket or an object public,
see The Meaning of "Public" in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Developer Guide.
